Who is the vendor for this contract?

Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy, Inc. is the current vendor serving NASA Goddard Space Flight Center. Understanding incumbent relationships and contract performance helps you position your solution effectively.

How can I compete for this contract?

Monitor this contract expiration and engage NASA Goddard Space Flight Center early. Starbridge tracks renewal timelines, provides decision-maker contacts, and alerts you to buying signals like budget changes and strategic plan updates—so you can position yourself months before the RFP drops.

How does contract intelligence help me win more deals?

Starbridge provides a 360° view of public sector spend including purchase data, full competitor contracts, and un-redacted sales proposals. You'll see exactly what competitors charge, when contracts expire, and which accounts are ready to switch—giving you early opportunities to engage before they go to RFP.

Can I see competitor pricing and contract details?

Yes. Starbridge runs custom FOIA requests at scale to find, index, and extract detailed data from competitor contracts—including annual revenue, implementation fees, product breakdowns, opt-out clauses, and contract expiration dates. We provide market pricing benchmarks and predict competitor pricing based on enrollment and other factors.

How do I find accounts with expiring contracts?

Starbridge monitors contract expirations across all your target accounts and delivers weekly prioritized lists of opportunities. We track which vendors are about to lose contracts, identify decision-makers to contact, and provide buying signals like budget changes and strategic plans to help you time your outreach perfectly.

Where does Starbridge get contract data?

We pull from official government and school websites, FOIA requests, procurement portals, and public spending databases. Unlike generic providers that rely on LinkedIn data, Starbridge uses continuous web crawls and AI-assisted FOIA automation to capture verified contract data, spending patterns, and un-redacted proposals you won't find anywhere else.
